Real-time financial clarity for salon and spa owners, without the full-time CFO price tag.
The past
POS exports, bank feeds, payroll, receipts. Scattered.
Ignite
The future
Reconciled, forecast, in order.
An animated hourglass: scattered grains of past financial data pass through Ignite and settle into an ordered, forecastable future, forming the Ignite logo.
Fig. 1 A Tuesday at 4:10 PM. Every chair booked. Do you know which one is making you money?
Commission splits, booth rent, retail vs. service, chair-level P&L. We don't translate generic CFO advice into salon language. We already live in it.
Commission, hourly, and booth-rent pay models. Retail vs. service margins. Tip handling. We read your P&L the way you run your floor.
Profitability per stylist, per chair, per location, so you know which seats and services actually pay and which ones quietly don't.
We pull from the tools you already run, your salon POS (Phorest, Meevo) and QuickBooks, and turn raw transactions into numbers you can act on.
Rebooking rate, retail attach, average ticket, new-guest retention, service-to-retail mix. The salon KPIs that move the business, tracked daily.
Most salons leave money on the shelf. We treat product as a second P&L: inventory, attach rates, and margin.
From a single studio to a multi-location group. The model scales with you, with location-level P&L from day one.
Everything you have now
POS exports, bank feeds, commission sheets, receipts, and a shoebox for your CPA in April.
We close the books
Reconciled and categorized every month. A P&L with context, not just numbers.
You see around corners
A rolling 13-week cash forecast, so every big bill shows up before it hits.
